Try Stick Mount from play store [Root]. It has automatic mount during boot option

rakeshz, play store says stick mount app is not supported on my phone.
[email protected], thanx for ur suggestion. usb mouse/keyboard and pen drives work but by 500GB usd HDD does not get detected. I am also facing another issue, when I unmount the pen drive and remove it from the OTG cable, I get the error: "android.process.media has stopped" and after that nothing gets detected until I restart my phone.
External HDDs require additional power so most don't work. However make sure you the memory device is on FAT32. If you are on NTFS, use binaries provided in the description of stick mount on google play.

Yes! You need an OTG cable, such as the Motorola Camera Connection Kit. There are others available for less money, but you have to make sure it's really OTG, because it has a different pin configuration.
In addition, you may need to use one of two free apps to help mount the drive--USB Mass Storage Watcher OTG, or Drive Mount.
I've found that it may help to reboot with the drive plugged in (at least the first time).
With this set-up you can use a thumb drive or a large HDD.
My Xoom is fine but my friend bought one and he cant otg with 3.2 unless he roots, right? ... The toshiba does otg out of the box. This was his major buying point. Anyone know why xoom m doesnt yet others will? And yes, he has otg cable.

I tried both of them n failed in both
The drive mount requires busybody. But after installed it, the drive mount apps keep DC.. couldn't use at all
And for the USB mass watcher, when i launch it it asked me to download the latest version, but the latest version isn't compatible with 3.2
What should i do now =(

I'm not certain if an unrooted Xoom can really access OTG/usb host mode. People say that, but I have been rooted from the start, so I never tested it out.
But i can't even download it from market @@
I jhave it now butkeep fc . Argh
Yeah, I have been rooted since day one as well, so I was unsure of the stock 3.2...

Are you sure you have an OTG cable?
Also, what are you trying to connect? Some people have had issues with thumb drives but not with an HDD.

Does it dim or does it crash? If it dims and you can't do anything, try turning the Xoom (like from landscape to portrait), with auto-rotate enable, and if a dialog box opens, choose an action.
If it is crashing, can you try an HDD like a Passport?
not dim nor crash. The device just suddenly go black n have to boot up

Okay, USB Mass Storage mode, what about it?
My Galaxy Note 5.3 with ICS has it. My Galaxy S3 with ICS does not have it.
I've been Googling for hours, and getting nowhere. The Samsung website says the N8000 has "USB Mass Storage Mode". But two posters on XDA say that it does not.
What I like to do is keep my PC file directory synced to my Samsung device. On my old Galaxy Tab 7 Classic, I can just plug it in (USB Mass Storage Mode), and it mounts and works. I then use ROBOCOPY (Windows rsync wannabe) and it syncs up just fine, and very quickly. I've got it in a batch file, I just plug in, double-click the icon, and it goes.
On the S3, MTP mode, as everyone seems to already know, doesn't cut it at all. It can't detect dates or metadata, so it wants to re-copy everything, in very slow MTP mode. UGH!
Prior to the ICS update for my note 5.3, I just rooted and used Samba.
So my questions:
1. Can someone definitively confirm whether the GT-N8000 Galaxy Note 10.1 has true USB Mass Storage mode support, or not?
2. If not, do we think Samsung is going to add it, as they did with the Galaxy note 5.3?
3. If not, is Samba the right way to go here? Is there a better way?
4. I've heard that "Airdroid" might be good, but does it support syncing a la rsync or robocopy?
5. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to proceed?
Thank you all so much for your patience and guidance!

My Galaxy S2 has USB Mass Storage mode... and I'm very dissapointed that the Note 10.1 does not have USB Mass Storage mode. Why do they keep changing these file structures... its so inconsistent.
One of the reasons I jumped from Transformer Prime TF201 to the Note 10.1 is because I thought the file structure in the Note 10.1 is better sturctured, just like the S2.
Anyone has any work around this? I do not want to always remove my microSD card all the time.

In settings/developer options, select usb debugging. Then when you connect to pc you should get mass storage hookup
You just need the MTP drivers .........
On WinXP machines mostly You will have to download KIES , install it to get drivers installed but not run it, connect 10.1 via USB and voila You will have a folder showing "phone" and sdcard folder.
Now You can use the sdcard card as mass storage. Only when it comes to transfer of files not recognized by Android or the device it will ask You wether it should be copied , just click yes.
On most win7 pcs Sammy devices are recognized automatically as MTP ...........
Same issue here , and for windows 8 i can't get the right drivers for it , the pc can't recognize the device in case i installed last version of Samsung Kies
The Note 10.1 uses MTP like the S3. I used this -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1711009 on my Note 10.1 and it lets me mount the external micro SD card when I plug it into my Windows 7 computer. You have to be rooted w/ busybox installed. It should work for the S3 also, since that is what it was made for.
Good luck!
go to settings...
I'm running ICS 4.0.4 on galaxy note which runs MTP mode by default.
Usb mass storage mode can be enabled from settings-> wireless and network (more) -> usb utilities... turn on mass storage
There u r... hope it helps
is there a mod for the note 10.1 for ums?

there are few apps in the market that i have seen that can do it.
Also there are windows applications that can do it too..
Dont remember anything over my head, but i am sure search will give you results..
I have done once in the past... It was along toiling process but eventually got many of them back.

If you are able to mount the internal sd as card in your pc then you should be able to do it, since it would be acting like any other hard drive
I dont think this is possible with stock firmware.. but if you are able to install an asop rom like CM then you might have option to do it by using some app like ums mass storage enabler or so..

Hey i think i got your problem which file system did u format your pendrive in ???
try using FAT 32 open root explorer.....r/w (those 8.0 8.1 use their names)
in terminal emulator run dis command
su
mkdir /sdcard-ext/usb (this can be any directory you want on the internal or micro SD)
mount -t vfat /dev/block/sda1 /sdcard-ext/usb
see if this helps :good:

Hi,
I'm in deepsh*t right now !! ... I was about to install new ROM for my Moto G XT1033, so I wiped clean everything, and while doing the same way, USB OTG was inserted, went back to mount option to mount the USB OTG, but it doesn't mount it, basically I click on it and it doesn't work, is there any other way or I will have to throw away my phone now ??
Is there a way to manually move ROM data to the root directory or under any directory there using just a cable and adt-bundle ??
Nevermind
TWRP wasn't detecting it due to some FS related issue of the pendrive, i just formatted the pen drive from TWRP, though it wasn't mounting I just wanted to check the wipe option for USB OTG, and it formatted into its recognizable FS, i think it would still be NTFS, but anyway, working now !! ... Almost had a heartattack ...
But anyway, if anyone knows, if similar happens, how to move files directly under root access using some tool or commands, connecting the phone with USB and laptop please give an update

Use adb sideload
Agree with post above. Just use either ADB to push a file to your phone or use ADB to sideload a ROM to install.
Try this!
